Umfangreiche Reorganisation in der Automobilbranche

Comprehensive reorganization in the automotive sector

An automotive supplier realized that their products were set to become much more complex. Our job was to reconfigure every single aspect of their organization from top to bottom to make them fit for the future. We refocused the three areas of responsibility within the Executive Board, completely redesigned, optimized and rolled out their project organization, and clarified all responsibilities along the supply chain, from the first customer call to delivery of the finished parts. Now our client can look to the future with confidence.

Serviceorientierte Organisation in der Automobilbranche

Service-oriented organization in the automotive sector

A company in the automotive services sector wanted to scale up a profitable business model in order to apply it to its less profitable locations. We suggested to the managing directors that the company first needed to switch to a service-oriented organization if it wanted to grow successfully at all. We then implemented this new service-oriented organization, making sure from the outset that it was scalable and had the capacity to grow. The organizational and cultural changes began right at the top at Board level and continued all the way down to the site managers. With the help of regular workshops and individual coaching sessions, we were able to motivate all of the company’s staff to follow this new path and gradually introduce a change in mindset across the entire company.

Umfangreiche Post-Merger-Integration im Finanzwesen

Comprehensive post-merger integration in the financial sector

Two German financial services providers with several thousand employees agreed to merge. Our challenge was to not only create a new organizational structure but also determine the right size for the new company “on the side”. We also supported the implementation of this project, with around 50% of employees across all locations moving to new offices.

Strategische Allianz von Chemie- und Automobilbranche

Strategic alliance between the chemicals and automotive sectors

An established chemicals group wanted to expand its sales activities into the automotive industry. We recommended partnering with a provider of automotive engineering services. This enabled the client to enter into discussions with carmakers and offer their solutions at a much earlier stage, during the development process. We defined all aspects of the collaboration between both partners and steadily increased the intensity of the collaboration. Our client has been delivering their products very efficiently ever since.

Internationale Post-Merger-Integration in der Baustoffbranche

International post-merger integration in the building materials industry

An American manufacturer of construction materials acquired a number of facilities in Europe as part of their buy and build strategy. They brought us on board for the integration process and tasked us with standardizing their processes and IT landscape. In addition to applying the parent company's processes and systems, we also identified best practices and optimization potential for the entire group. We then successfully implemented these to make sure that our client could enjoy the best of many different worlds.
